CLEVELAND, Sept. 27, 2018 – Created in partnership by the design experts at HGTV® and the paint company pros trust, HGTV HOME™ by Sherwin-Williams reveals its trending 2019 Color Collections of the Year and distinguished 2019 Color of the Year.

Available exclusively at Lowe's, these three new Color Collections take the guesswork and frustration out of coordinating colors in your home, letting people focus entirely on creating a perfect "TA-DA!" reveal that all HGTV fans strive for and love.

"The 2019 Color Collections of the Year encourage consumers to travel down a path of self-discovery through coordinated palettes that easily help them bring their color vision to life," said Ashley Banbury, Senior Color Designer at HGTV HOME by Sherwin-Williams. "The 2019 distinguished Color of the Year, Reflecting Pool, is incredibly versatile and can be combined with any of the trending Color Collections. It can be soft and calming when mixed with natural hues, but energizing and fun when combined with the vivid and bold shades."

Each palette consists of eight colors that work together in any combination, offering the ability to mix and match with complete confidence when bringing your vision to life.
